Sadly this review is not based on the food but of the lack of forethought of the owners. We took a 54 mile motorcycle ride to get to the restaurant having checked beforehand that it was going to be open. Both website and Facebook state this cafe is open on a Tuesday. Unfortunately the owners have decided not to open during the week in winter but are too lazy to update their website or Facebook page letting you know this. Be aware this cafe is not open weekdays in the winter. We ended up turning around and finding an alternative venue.

I was not impressed with the undercooked sausage and bacon, the toast was just buttered bread, not a great start to a day.

Great food and friendly service. Fantastic place for anyone with an interest in aviation, or food, or both like myself! Nice tidy indoor dining area, or you can sit outside and watch the flying while you eat. The fry up's and Sunday roasts are highly recommended.

Great food and service at The Gliding Centre. Recommend the avocado and poached egg on toast. Sunday lunch is good as well.

First time we've visited here for a long time on a Sunday as we found the Pig & Muck some years ago, where the Carvery was outstanding. Unfortunately, that's now changed hands and a Carvery is no longer offered, so we tried The Crown again. The Pros: Staff were all lovely, really friendly and very attentive. We've always liked the interior of this Pub and it had been refreshed since our last visit, many years ago. Cons: Welcome at the actual Carvey was "what do you want mate"! What can I get for you, without the mate, would seem more appropriate. First dissapointing thing food wise, was only a choice of 3 meats. Perhaps we were spoilt at The Pig & Muck, as there was always beef, pork, pork belly, lamb, gammon and turkey on a Sunday. The meat we had at The Crown though was good. Frozen Yorkshire Puddings were also dissapointing. Most establishments serving a great Sunday Lunch pride themselves on homemade Yorkshire. The Cauliflower and Brocoli Cheese was just awful. The sauce was as runny as water. It seems the staff are the biggest asset here, as the Carvery was not good enough to return. I know the long established Chef left a few months ago, so maybe this is problem.
